[R-390] Electro s Nah relay base/plug!

[Barry]

Hmmm, I didn't think about that.  I was assuming the housings would be
oriented so that they would fit properly, but if I recall correctly, the
octal sockets are not mounted at right angles to the sides of the AF deck.
Maybe I'd better stick with my tube bases...

Thanks,

Yup, same here, cut the corners off on a bandsaw 'til
it's round.
